Chapter List
Chapter 1 – Algebraic Formulas and Applications
Reviews key algebraic identities and shows how to apply them in simplifying and solving expressions. A strong foundation for the rest of the book.
Chapter 2 – Factorization
Covers different methods of factorizing algebraic expressions, including common factor, grouping, and factorization of quadratic expressions.
Chapter 3 – Algebraic Manipulation
Deals with simplification of algebraic fractions, HCF and LCM of polynomials, and operations on rational expressions.
Chapter 4 – Linear Equations and Inequalities
Explains how to solve linear equations in one and two variables, simultaneous equations, and linear inequalities with number line representation.
Chapter 5 – Quadratic Equations
Introduces methods for solving quadratic equations: factorization, completing the square, and the quadratic formula. Includes word problems.
Chapter 6 – Matrices and Determinants
Covers the basics of matrices — types, operations, and determinants. Explains how to use matrices to solve a system of linear equations.
Chapter 7 – Fundamental of Geometry
Revisits core geometry theorems on lines, angles, triangles, and parallel lines. Lays the foundation for practical geometry in the next chapter.
Chapter 8 – Practical Geometry
Focuses on geometric constructions using compass and ruler — triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. Step-by-step diagrams are included.
Chapter 9 – Areas and Volumes
Covers formulas for areas of plane figures and surface areas and volumes of 3D solids like cubes, cylinders, cones, and spheres.
Chapter 10 – Introduction to Coordinate Geometry
